About The Kraken Lunchbox Head
Victory Amplification proudly introduce the VX Kraken MKII electric guitar head! The MKII is the result of 4 years of development, built on top of the legacy of the original, and represents the next step of evolution of the Kraken! The MKII was made in collaboration with Victory artist Rabea Massaad, and retains all the features from the original, and has extra features, and provides more versatility. The amplifier has a High/Low power mode. You can run the amp as a 50w powerhouse, or you can switch it down to a 9v amp, meaning you can practice with it in a home setting, making it versatile for many playing environments.
Guitar.com have reviewed the Kraken MKII as ""One of the best metal amps money can buy with a clean and classic rock channel thrown in to boot.""
Two Gain Channels
- Gain 1 – Classic British-inspired rhythm tones. A Clean mode has been added with the Kraken MKII, which can be controlled with the included footswitch, or the three-way switch on the front panel of the amplifier.
- Gain 2 – An American modern, tight, searing high gain.
Two Master Volumes
The Kraken MKII has two master volume controls, which can be controlled with the footswitch. The master volume assign switch can switch the volume controls to be set globally across channels, or to their original Gain channels.

About The Kraken Lunchbox Cab
Introducing the Victory Lunchbox Cabinet series, designed as the perfect match for the British company’s award-winning Lunchbox amp heads. Powered by the broad frequency response of a Celestion Seventy 80 speaker and weighing in at 8.8kg, these compact cabs deliver punchy, well-rounded tones that are great for valve & modelling rigs alike – but without the backache!
Made In England
Taking the same concept of the rugged UK build quality and compact nature of the Victory Lunchbox heads, these new 1x12” speaker cabinets feature hybrid construction materials incorporating a Birch Ply frame and baffle, and finished in a Zintec steel cabinet housing.
The Celestion Seventy 80 Speaker
When it came to voicing, the Victory research & development department spent a great deal of time perfecting the speaker choice for these new cabinets, and the popular Celestion Seventy 80 speaker was chosen as the ideal tonal partnership for the Victory sound.
Choose Your Look
Available in six different finishes, the new 1x12” cabs have also been cosmetically designed to match Lunchbox heads for Duchess, Kraken, Jack, Sheriff, Copper and Deputy.
